Stein River, Mountain river in Thompson-Nicola Regional District, Canada
The Stein River extends 50 kilometers from Tundra Lake through dense forests and steep cliffs before joining the Fraser River near Lytton.
Indigenous Nlaka'pamux people named this river 'Stagyn', meaning hidden place, referring to its valley's concealed nature from the Fraser River viewpoint.
The Stein Valley Nlaka'pamux Heritage Park preserves both the natural environment and the traditional territories of First Nations communities.
Kayakers navigate class IV rapids during July and August, when water conditions allow multi-day expeditions through the protected watershed.
This river system represents one of only two unlogged watersheds larger than 50 kilometers south of Prince George in British Columbia.
